Abstract: Most of society by now are at least somewhat aware of the severe shortages of frontline nurses and doctors. Workforce shortages were here even before the pandemic – but now, like most professions, the healthcare and public health workforce shortage has reached dangerously low staffing levels. In a recent 2023 Definitive Healthcare report, the authors state that since 2020, nearly one in five healthcare workers have quit their jobs, and research suggests that up to 47% of healthcare workers plan to leave their positions by 2025.
